Well folks, I figured I’d take a break to indulge in some exciting news… er… I mean rumors. Now I could reveal my sources, but I won’t. Therefore you should consider this entirely unfounded, without cause and totally useless ;-)

I have never in my many years of web surfing read anything as fallaciously balderdashish as what I’ve just read here now!! Because of this, I’m going to dismiss this as utter nonsense and, though you may continue to regale us with tales of future comings, those too shall also be summarily dismissed point by point!!
MU HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA >:) LOL
I’m new to this site, directed here by rowan-cottage who says this site is essential for all iWeb users. This pretty much the second thing I’ve read on the entire site and I think I like it here already. -Crystal
Okay that got a roar out of me. Welcome. Yes, Michael Wong is one of the iWeb gurus. He runs the Rowan Cottage site. He likely has far more how-to documents. I tend to stick with template issues and creation. I’ve been so busy getting my new account system up and running that I haven’t had much time to write, but that will change now that things are launching. Enjoy!
